[Xymon] monitoring map drive

[Shea, Graeme A]

This could be tricky. Drive mappings are stored in the users profile and BBWin runs as a service in a separate account. If there is only one logged on user who is logged on all the time (with the mapped drive) you could try running the BBWin service under that users credentials with the allow service to interact with desktop ticked. Another option is to run a script under the users accounts to send the information manually.

Graeme

Are you sure that the user running the service has access to the share?

Usually the service runs under the local service account which would not have access.

Hi all,

I want to know how to monitoring map drive with bbwin.
I see :
                <!-- If true, the agent will check remote drives -->
                <setting name="remote" value="false" />

But, doesn't work when I change the setting name and value.
I know local drives are automatically add to xymon.

If someone use this feature, help will be welcome.

Thx

David Raymond
